Description: "This publication accompanies a new exhibition and film that looks at anticipation, the phenomenon of certain forms of inherited genetic illnesses worsening as they are passed on from generation to generation...The film is based on a series of interviews with eleven scientists living in cities across three continents who were involved in the key research that proved pivotal in establishing the idea of anticipation as a true biological effect. The book contains full transcripts of each of the interviews plus a new commissioned essay by Rebecca Gordon Nesbitt, documentation of the exhibition and film, and a timeline of historical developments in the field." - Back cover.
